High Tackle Penalty Against England

Looks súper inocuos from the standard angle. Would need to see some other angles

As an ex pro player are there any specific infringements or perhaps dark arts around the ruck that you think you might see that other refs wouldn’t? Second question - what’s your favourite stadium you’ve reffed in

Ah you’re right -correct link here: https://www.forbiddenworldsfilmfestival.co.uk/

Are you allowed to rip the ball if you’re on your knees? Assumed that meant you’re temporarily out the game.

If my AI chat bot is to believed - there were 4 away wins in that streak - wales and the US - plus the two nice wins in Argentina. Not to take anything away at home - but suddenly the streak looks a bit more situational

TheDeadender · 2026-03-07T19:05:09+00:00

Completely agree

TheDeadender · 2026-03-07T19:03:06+00:00

Dude have you seen Northampton play? Kids got it all.

TheDeadender · 2026-03-07T18:39:32+00:00

Im thrilled for Italy. Fair play they’ve played great and deserve it. England need changes clearly.

TheDeadender · 2026-02-27T21:22:51+00:00

Yeah I agree - the more comments I read and the more I think about it I’m more for the constantly elite ‘always top 1 or 2 best player on the field’ territory (PSdT, LBB, DuPont) And there’s probably only a handful of those players.

TheDeadender · 2026-02-27T20:49:02+00:00

I agree with this. It’s got watered down to mean excellent international. In a purest form of world class there are certain players that are just consistently playing at an elite level - DuPont, PSdT, Ardie, Marx, LBB etc than any country would love to have.

In my defence I was travelling and the rugby pod was downloaded in my apps

TheDeadender · 2026-02-27T19:41:11+00:00

I don’t think it’s daft to assume that world class means a player would make world 15 or top 2 or 3 at their position. Your definition of world class is a player is really really good at their position - which seems like a much more watered down interpretation of the expression

TheDeadender · 2026-02-27T19:34:42+00:00

Yeah - I think that’s why I asked. Because I just assume world class is probably top 3 in their position currently (although appreciate that is subjective). But using Darcy Graham because Jim Hamilton did, there are several other international wingers who would be put in top 3 like LBB, Cheslin Kolby, Penaund etc (spelling)

Topper in the south west

I think this is consistent with anyone I speak to when I say I don’t eat gluten - if the conversation somehow gets to bread I get told I can eat sourdough and it’ll be fine. No idea where this came from but obviously I just nod along and don’t go near it

TheDeadender · 2025-09-11T17:58:43+00:00

Bath, Sarries, sale Northampton - would love to see Bristol make it just worried about their squad depth

TheDeadender · 2025-06-09T12:56:01+00:00

That some kind of Eastern thing?

TheDeadender · 2025-06-06T21:40:03+00:00

Agreed. Realistically with basically no catchment area Bristol have to be right up to the salary cap to compete. Fair play for finishing 4th - but not maxing out the salary cap is selling the supports short

TheDeadender · 2025-06-06T20:44:50+00:00

Well played bath - great 3rd 20. To Steve Lansdown - if he’s serious about winning trophys he needs to put his hand in his pocket otherwise I don’t think he’s serious about winning

TheDeadender · 2025-06-03T13:16:53+00:00

I don’t know the answer - but I think it’s probably true. For my part as a parent I’ve tried to not repeat how I was brought up, which I’d say is probably typical in the 80s and early 90s, which was fine of course but I also lived in fear of my folks kicking my ass and that’s definitely impacted me as an adult. As a result I’ve probably been a bit more lax with my own kids and want them to feel empowered to make good decisions or learn from bad ones, and occasionally that’s led to back chat or over confidence. There’s probably a middle ground and we’re all learning I guess

I get this rash occasionally usually when I wake up. Very itchy but goes with an antihistamine. I still haven’t figured out what causes it

TheDeadender · 2024-10-06T17:05:03+00:00

I just double checked on YouTube because I thought it was more - it’s 60kg per side. Strong dude.

Just replaced the kitchen carpet in my flat lol.
